Setup

Must-Have Apps

Download these before you land and the first week gets 10x smoother. Categories, not sponsorships: grab the local favourite once you arrive (your group chat will tell you which one).

Tailor the tools to your country

Pick your exchange country and every tool adapts: budget, visa, apps, phrases.

Pick your country to start

Choose your exchange country in the bar above and your Must-Have Apps appears instantly, tailored to exactly where you’re headed.

Get these on your phone

Day one

Group chat

WhatsApp or Telegram, whatever your Studcasa city group uses. This is mission control.

Navigation

Maps + offline maps

Google Maps plus an offline option (Maps.me / Organic Maps) for when data dies.

Getting around

Local transport

The city’s official metro/bus app for live times and mobile tickets. Ask the group which one.

Late nights

Ride-hail / bikes

Uber, Bolt, or the local equivalent, plus a bike/scooter app for short hops.

Money

Banking / FX

A multi-currency card app (Revolut, Wise, N26) saves a fortune on fees abroad.

Survival

Translate

Google Translate or DeepL with the language pack downloaded for offline menus and signs.

Comfort

Food delivery

The big local app for the inevitable rainy-Sunday-no-groceries situation.

Before you fly

eSIM / data

Airalo or similar gets you online the second you land, no airport SIM queue.

Good to know

Set it up before takeoff

Download offline maps + language packs

Airport wifi is a myth. Do it on home wifi.

Screenshot your key info

Address, emergency numbers, acceptance letter, all reachable without data.

Turn on roaming alerts

Or pop in your eSIM so you’re not hit with a surprise bill.

One tool down. The rest of your crew’s waiting.

Prep’s pointless without people. Join your city’s group and land with mates already sorted. Free, no sign-up.
